Building Skills, Catalyzing Growth​

McColm & Company delivers sustainable, bottom-up ​development and diplomacy solutions for fragile states and vulnerable communities.

ECONOMIC GROWTH & TRADE

Entrepreneurs and MSMEs are often the largest, and sometimes only, source of employment in vulnerable and rural communities. Supporting them comes with built in sustainability since these companies tend to reinvest profits locally, creating new jobs. McCO works at the firm level to help clients to understand, strengthen, and deliver specialized services to these businesses, leading to more jobs and greater stability.

POLICY & DIPLOMACY

​An in depth understanding of local economies, culture, politics, and context are essential to success in cross cultural environments. McCO designs and delivers interactive country and region specific cultural training courses for adult learners and builds staff capacity through professional advisory and mentoring services to ensure foreign policy leaders achieve their mission and objectives.

STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS

Dynamic partnerships can accelerate stability, growth, and change in rural and vulnerable communities. When properly facilitated and organized, diaspora members - individuals who have left their country of origin, but retain strong ties and affinities for their homeland - are critical drivers of growth. McCO helps facilitate unique partnerships that create lasting cooperation and sustainable outcomes.
